Diamonds have always symbolised love, strength, and eternity. While many people choose a brand-new diamond for its sparkle and pristine condition, others are now exploring the beauty of second hand diamonds. These pieces bring with them a sense of history, individuality, and sustainable luxury.
At T.H. Baker, we believe both new and pre-owned diamonds hold their own unique appeal — whether you’re drawn to the brilliance of something new or the charm of a diamond with a story behind it.
Why Choose Second Hand Diamonds?
-
1. A Sustainable Option
Second hand diamonds give existing jewellery a new life, making them a conscious choice for those who value sustainability. Instead of newly mined stones, you’re investing in a gem that already exists — reducing environmental impact while still enjoying the same timeless sparkle.
-
2. Distinctive, One-of-a-Kind Pieces
Many second hand diamonds are set in designs from past decades, making them ideal for anyone looking for something distinctive. From vintage Art Deco rings to elegant mid-century solitaires, pre-owned jewellery often carries a charm you simply won’t find in modern collections.
-
3. Great Value for Quality
Second hand diamonds can offer excellent value, often priced lower than brand-new pieces of the same size and grade. This means you can sometimes choose a larger stone or more intricate design while staying within your budget.
Resizing Options for the Perfect Fit
One common concern with pre-owned rings is sizing. The good news is that many second hand rings can be resized, depending on their design. Simple bands are usually straightforward to adjust, while certain detailed settings or eternity bands may not be suitable.
Our team at T.H. Baker can advise you on which rings can be resized to ensure the perfect fit for your special moment.
A Complement to New Diamonds
Choosing a second hand diamond doesn’t mean ruling out new ones — in fact, many couples explore both before making their final decision. Some love the heritage and individuality of pre-owned jewellery, while others prefer the modern brilliance of a brand-new diamond. Both options are equally special, and the right choice comes down to your personal style and values.
